On Friday, September 9th Rebecca Taylor debuted her Spring 2012 collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. The show opened with an alabaster snake leather and shades of moonlight silk pieced dress. Asymmetrical dresses in a palette of pale muted tones of grays and citron had an ethereal feel. The collection was easy wearable pieces that could be mixed and matched in a variety of ways. The nude pailette top pictured in the top photo was shown in three different ways giving each one it’s own stand alone look and feel. In the theme of fresh she showed a cobalt shibori tie front apron dress and a skirt pictured above that looked like white billowing clouds painted on a blue sky backdrop. Gunmetal pieces were interjected into the collection throwing a bit of a harder edge into the mix. The accessories (belts, shoes and handbags) were also designed by Rebecca Taylor.

“There’s enough bummer in the world,” Taylor said backstage after her show. “I just want girls to feel pretty and to feel sexy. All my models tell me, this is what we want to wear.”
